A Framework for Evaluating Mobile Payments
Free registration required
Executive Summary
A great number of mobile payment schemes exist in the market. This paper suggests a framework, based on payment type and technology, to classify mobile payment schemes. The framework supports a definition of mobile payments as a way to use existing payment instruments. Based on the framework, mobile payments' success factors from the payer and payee viewpoints are discussed. In the mobile payments value chain, both banks and mobile operators are critical players, but their business cases are not self-evident. This paper aims at contributing to central banks' need to better understand the functioning of mobile payment schemes and mobile payment markets.

Builders need to know that the electric car is coming, even if it seems to be taking forever to get here.
John Stonier, a Vancouver consultant, will convey that message to local industry at a sustainable building and renovating forum on Thursday hosted by the Canadian Home Builders Association.
The forum at Kamloops Convention Centre offers a variety of speakers on topics ranging from a real estate forecast to building code changes to an innovative renovation project that cuts energy consumption to zero.
For Stonier, it's about building cities that accommodate new patterns of mobility.
"It's moving ahead a lot faster than people think," said Stonier, a chartered accountant who's developed a specialty in alternative technologies. He became an instant fan of electric vehicles when he drove his wife's Toyota Prius. Since then he's converted a Porsche Boxster to electric power, as he also converts his career.
His key message is that the future of the automobile will be in selling time, not serial numbers. The shift in private ownership is already under way, he said. In the 1970s, 60 per cent of 16-year-olds drove cars, Stonier said. Today, the figure is about half that amount.
More people in the Lower Mainland are taking advantage of car-share services, allowing them to use vehicles at their convenience without keeping one in the garage, Stonier said.
"It could be Langley, it could be Kamloops - it's the same problem. They're not walkable cities and you still need a car to get around in."
Builders who have to pay for parking allowances on projects can earn credits by allocating some space for car-sharing, he said. Builders should also be installing home refuelling outlets, the same as a dryer outlet only accessible outdoors.
Stonier believes consumers will embrace electric vehicles once they catch on to the actual savings.
"My head's been on this for eight years now, and people don't realize the benefit of electric cars. Most people see the sticker prices for electric or hybrid vehicles and think they can't afford them. I haven't done the big consulting company study, but I just added up the numbers," he said.
The maintenance and fuel savings are significant, he said, comparing gasoline costs of $300 a month with recharging costs of $30 a month.
Patsy Bourassa, executive officer of Home Builders Central interior said she sensed a need in the industry for an educational forum on sustainable approaches. In a membership survey, builders indicated that relevant information was among the top three reasons they belonged to the association.
"Builders being who they are, it's better to pull as much information together as possible at one time," she said.
The forum as a whole is open to the public for a registration fee, but an evening presentation is offered free of charge to all.
Lorraine Gauthier, president of the Now House Project in Toronto, will talk about renovations that transform homes into net energy producers rather than consumers. She speaks at 7 p.m.

Finally reviewing this after finishing both bottles. I have/had Chamomile (yellow) and Melissa Ltd Ed? (emerald green) Of the 2, my fav is Melissa. Found Chamomile very 'meh'. The scent was too mellow and hardly registered. Melissa is brighter and gives a energizing zip to the finished makeup routine. Makeup settles better onto the skin and doesn't feel sticky.
As I had 4 bottles of facial mists on table at the same time (2 Shu, Jurlique and a small pink Collagen mist from DAISO=> sticky!+ no smell= not so ok, but very cheap!) , it never occured to me how much I would miss Melissa when she /it finished.Not my favourite ( Jurlique still owns my heart) but will look into Shu's Rose or Mint when I need a new facial mist.
I cannot fathom how amazing this product is. This deep sea water mist refreshes, moisturizes and keeps your skin feeling soft and supple throughout even the coldest of cold winters in Australia. I originally bought this for my cleansing routine and have found it can completely replace my night time moisturizer. I use this on my eczema as I suffer from it the worse during winter time. Im so proud to say I havent needed any steroid creams! :) when I am at the beach, any sea water helps calm my skin. This mist water needs to be an essential in any skincare routine! I have the no scent one so I dont have any unnecessary extra chemicals on my skin.
I love the rose mist and have done for a while now. Its handy to put some into a travel-sized bottle in general but especially when you're facing a longhaul flight..
i got the rose mist as a gift with purchase today and while tonight is the first time using it, i must say it is highly moisterizing. normally the clarisonic dries out my skin and leaves me with a tight feeling and i need to pretty much slather cream over my face to get rid of the tight feeling. tonight after i "mia'd" i spritzed my face with the rose mist and then added a pearl size of my night cream on top. i must say it do not have that tight feeling right now. so far so good.

Yes, it looks suspiciously useless but it's the farthest thing from a gimmicky product. I have tried almost all of their scents, my favourite being mint and bergamot. I'm now on rose and I love it just as much. My skin have never been better, less prone to acne, more moisturised, and gives a dewy finish every time I use it. I have no idea what kind of drug they put in there as they claim it is from the deepest ocean trench unharmed by the sun and pollution. Whatever is in it, I'm all for it.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I hesitated at first when buying this, but now I don't regret it. I do have acne-prone skin...And most of the products I use to subdue the breakouts and pimple all are drying on my skin. I noticed flakiness on my skin too, and all the moisturizer I was using did not do much. I spray this on my face right after cleansing or other times when I need a little "refreshing", and I'll say that I love it.
Once I bought this facial mist (bergamot...though I think I should have gotten Rose or Chamomile instead...), I realized that I need to apply less moisturizer after, and my skin has been feeling much more softer. My skin feels less irritated these days too. I don't see the flakiness I used to have. Spraying this is quite refreshing too. Yes this product is quite expensive ($25 usually...But I got it on sale for $20 on Shu's website), but I don't regret buying it at all. (I don't mind buying it for the original price either.)
This product is also a great combo with the Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil~ (I use the Fresh Pink one.)

Ireceived three of these from a friend of mine and put them aside. For some reason I was not excited about them, but I recently went through a stash and found them again. I checked out some reviews here and sprayed some on morning and night. i cannot explain how this works, but it not only adds moisture to the skin, but leaves it really smooth and soft. I also noticed that it smoothed out some little roughness I had right under my chin. I suppose that deep sea water contains a high level of micro nutrients or something and it's smoothing out the skin via the anti-oxidants. I'm pleasantly surprised!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Performance: Used as make up mist and found it quite refreshing. After using oil blotting paper to remove excess oil on make up face, i will use this water to moist up the skin. Skin immediately feel the sensation of coolness and rehydrated.
Texture: Very fine mist that covers most of the skin easily
Scent: (in lavender) not overwhelming
Worthiness: It is just a marine water with some paraben and fragrance. However, it is quite amazing that it make skin feel cool in hot weather. I wonder if normal tap water did that too? Will repurchase because I like how it feels on my skin. But in the meanwhile i will like to try other brand (this is my 1st time using mist)
I'm ashamed to say that I would buy this product again lol... it is absolutely not a necessity... but I love it to bits!
I bought it in the rose scent and it is beautiful! not too strong at all
Its really nice to use during the day when you want to refresh your make-up, or just over your moisturiser.
Everybody should just buy it from Strawberrynet because its heaps cheaper ^_^
I got this in the lavender scent and it's a very pleasant smell that is not too strong. The scent goes away really fast so it shouldn't be much of an issue. I know that the product says to use it before moisturizer, but I use it at the end of my skincare routine. Before I used this product I would end up kind of sticky and wait it out to absorb into my skin. After I used the spray, the stickiness went away right away at the end of my routine. This product is great. I could've managed without it before, but now that I tried it, I refuse to go on without it!

Fuchsia procumbens
Deciduous, Shrubs, Semi-evergreen, Decorative fruit or berries, Flowers
FUCHSIAThe fuchsia comes from wet, mountainous areas, mainly in tropical America. Most fuchsias bloom from late spring to first frost (and some bloom even longer), bearing unscented flowers frequented by hummingbirds. Popular showy-blossomed fuchsias are forms of F. x hybrida and are discussed under that heading.
Some species fuchsias have blooms that are smaller overall than those of hybrids; others bear large, tubular flowers in unusual colors. Fuchsias grow best in cool-summer areas with much moisture in the atmosphere and soil. Plant in-ground fuchsias in full sun in the Northwest; give potted ones there and all fuchsias farther south either morning sun or all-day dappled shade. If you live where fog rolls in on summer afternoons, any place in your garden will supply ideal conditions. Where summers are warm, windy, or dry, seek or create favorable exposure protected from wind and hot afternoon sun.
A heavy mulch (1 1/2–3 in. thick) helps keep soil moist in hot climates. Frequent overhead sprinkling is beneficial in several ways: it keeps leaves clean, discourages some pests, and counteracts low humidity. Blooms appear on new wood, so do any pruning before spring growth begins. In addition to removing broken or crossing branches, you can prune as little or as much as desired to maintain size or to shape the plant.
Fuchsia procumbensFrom New Zealand. Prostrate, spreading growth to about 6 in. high and 3–4 ft. wide. Heart-shaped, half-inch-long leaves. Tiny, petalless flowers in summer deserve close inspection: they have pale orange sepals with green markings and purple tips, and their anthers and pollen are bright blue. Showy, 3/4-in. bright red berries follow. Good as a groundcover and in containers. Resistant to fuchsia gall mite.

Backstory: Pop! goes the curriculum
'American Idol,' for better or worse, is filling music classes with eager singers.
When Jane Waldrop's fifth- and sixth-graders report for her mandatory music classes, they are rarely eager to volunteer for performances of any kind. Or, rather, they weren't eager to perform before Ms. Waldrop turned her kids into believers by adding a dash of "American Idol" reality to the curriculum.
It seems the students at Clearview Elementary in Herndon, Va., just needed a bit of prodding, reality TV-style.
"We actually call it 'American Idol' and have kids come up and serve as judges and have others volunteer to sing," Waldrop says. "They get up there and really ham it up. It makes them interested in music in a whole new way."
Can Simon Cowell save the music?
If the music being saved is overwrought pop singing, then the answer seems to be yes. And if it brings attention to the oft-overlooked notion of honing a craft, all the better.
At a time when music education budgets are in constant peril, even the unabashedly shallow Top 40 machinery of "Idol" makes some teachers cry for an encore. The smash Fox show - known for crowning newly minted pop stars as well as for the critiques offered by the snarky Mr. Cowell - is a cultural touchstone, for better and worse.
"The fact that so many kids dream about being on ['American Idol'] shows that music is a draw," says Sue Rarus, director of research at MENC: The National Association for Music Education.
"Children all across the country are watching and dreaming. Kids are looking for something to strive for - and as superficial as this show may be, it's holding that out to a lot of people."
Now in its fifth season, "Idol" has made students more interested in singing and in school music programs, say teachers on the front lines of auditorium risers across the country.

Hi there.
I am hoping that some of you who know a bit more about baking science than I do can give me some feedback.
I currently make some chile - chocolate brownies. The recipe calls for the addition of 1 tsp cinnamon and 1tsp ancho chili powder to a recipe that makes an 8x8 pan. I would like to make a cake with the same zip as the brownies. I have seen the doctored mix recipe on Cake Central that suggests adding 2 1/2tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp chile powder and 1/2 tsp cayenne powder to the mix dry ingredients; however, I prefer to bake from scratch. Assuming I make enough batter to give me the same amount as a box mix (2 - 8" rounds I think) could I just add the same amount of cinnamon and chile powder to the dry ingredients for my stand-by chocolate cake?
Thanks for your help.

"Emotional Roller Coaster"
I can't say what I liked best about him without doing a spoiler alert. The relationship between he and Jacob sounded just like my own sons so that made him an instant hit for me.
Jessica, I loved how she had her time to shine. It was nice to have her admit that it wasn't Damiens wife that she was jealous of, that it was what Damien had found that had her panties in a bunch.
Hard to pick just one, she does a good job with all of them for the most part. Jacob was the hardest "voice" for me to get used to which is suprising since it was the first one but by the last book I couldn't see him being played any other way. In this particular book, I liked the way she did Jessica the best.
YES, I had tears running down my face when they killed off the enforcers!!!!!!!!!! I almost quit listening to it because I couldn't figure out why she'd do something like that to the backbone of the series.
A lot of the loose ends were wrapped up nicely and it was so good to see Ruth was finally captured but they really do need to do a book to wrap up the mistrals and a few other things with a real closure. Besides we need to make sure that the future really is bright and that Ruth never found a way to escape!
The narrator as always did an excellent job.
Probably start the series over while waiting for the next book to come out on audio
With her consistency in vocals for each character from book to book, I can visualize what each character looks like in my mind. When I read one of the books, I hear those voices!
No, this book just didn't do it for me, of all the books and novellas so far, this one was my least enjoyed. Just didn't like the main victim as portrayed, hard to like smart mouthed teenagers with know it all attitudes.
It would be amazing if JD Robb did a book where Eve and Roark were balancing her homicide career with pregnancy.
"Very Disappointing!"
The author should have developed the story instead of focusing so much on the love story... I THOUGHT this was a suspense thriller. Its really irritating to buy a book expecting action and its full of a bunch of boring love story crap. I buy these books to keep me away while driving, this one was a real snooze fest.
"Waste of braincells"
Nick Podehl did a good job with what he had to work with as a story teller but I will never buy anothwer David Wong book.
He could leave out vulgar language. It seemed like he said the F word just to say it and threw in the word penis as often as he could. It really is not needed. This felt like 7th grade locker room humor.
The narrator did a good job with the substandard material he had to work with.
I got disgusted and didn't finish the book so can't answer that, couldn't even finish the bulk of part one.
I think I'm just too old to enjoy this type of book. Someone in their twenties who uses the words "dude" and "seriously" a lot will probably enjoy. Being they were both used in the title, it should have clued me in, but this is the first time I've found a book THIS ANNOYING.
"Snooze fest"
I couldn't stay awake for this book. I loved the other three books in the series but this book was so wordy and full of description of everything under the sun that it kept loosing me and I would fall asleep. I understand the auther is trying to paint a picture in your mind for the story but THAT much detail is not needed, it really took away from the story.
The performance was fine, it was the material he had to work with, I would listen to his performances again, he has a really good voice.
I wouldn't cut any of the scenes really, I would just not be so darned descriptive of every little detail, if you're listening to Dean Koontz, you already have a good imagination!

This was by far the most clever of Daffy's shorts! The best part is when poor Daffy finds out who's behind his grief! The animation itself is marvelous!

Alkaloid tolerance in Manduca sexta and phylogenetically related sphingids (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae)

Nicotine tolerance is well known for Manduca sexta. It also occurs in several other sphingids of the subfamilies Macroglossinae and Sphinginae. Only members of the subfamily Smerinthinae appear to be more susceptible to nicotine intoxication. Phylogenetic trees have been reconstructed from mitochondrial 16S rDNA and nuclear DNA to map nicotine tolerance.¶The nicotine binding site of both α-subunits of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) have been amplified and sequenced. No apparent amino acid substitution can be seen in the putative nicotine binding site of the α-subunits of nAChR from nicotine tolerant and nicotine sensitive sphingids. Thus, a simple target-site modification can be ruled out as a cause for nicotine tolerance. This finding agrees with feeding experiments: larvae of M. sexta and other sphingids of the Macroglossinae and Sphinginae not only tolerated nicotine, but also many other alkaloids that affect neuroreceptors other than acetylcholine receptors (nAChR, mAChR).¶Only 10 to 20% of nicotine injected into larvae of nicotine-tolerant taxa could be recovered later as free nicotine, nicotine N-oxide or cotinine, i.e., 80 to 90% must have been converted to polar conjugates or degradation products which are not detectable with the methods applied. Usually more than 98% of the recoverable alkaloids were found in the faeces. Excretion reached a maximum 6 h after injection in tolerant taxa. Larvae of Manduca sexta, which were reared on a nicotine-rich diet, showed higher nicotine degradation and faster nicotine elimination than naïve larvae. Application of the cytochrome P450 inhibitor SKF 525A (proadifen) reduced the formation of nicotine N-oxide and the rate of alkaloid degradation. Thus, an inducible detoxification mechanism, coupled with a rapid and inducible excretion, appear to be a strategy in Sphingidae that helps them to live on host plants rich in otherwise toxic secondary metabolites.

The expansive menu of Kabab & Curry caters to a wide range of culinary preferences by presenting a variety of vegetarian dishes and allowing guests to customize the spiciness of their dishes by choosing mild, medium, spicy, or "I Promised Myself I Wouldn't Cry." The welcoming staff prides itself on cooking fine Indian and Pakistani dishes in addition to providing attentively affable customer care amid an environment that exudes a warmth to match the eatery?s cuisine. Since the crafting of curry incorporates myriad spices, the eatery boasts a curry unique to its establishment that can be prepared with meat or vegetarian ingredients. Traditional tandoori dishes as well as chicken, lamb, beef, and seafood entrees fill out the bulk of the menu, and a selection of lentil cr?pes, naan, and savory soups longs for the chance to win Best Supporting Actor or Dish. The restaurant also performs catering services, a more responsible way to deliver its cuisine than putting the building on a flatbed truck every time it gets an order.
The aromas of North Indian cuisine draw passersby into Jewel of India's brick-lined doorway, leading them toward tables topped with saffron-colored linens. Here, they can dive into more than 100 traditional Indian dishes, including crispy pakoras, spicy vindaloos, and seafood baked in a tandoor clay oven. Like the forecasts of an easily bribable weatherman, entrees can be ordered with one of five heat levels: mild, medium, spicy, X, or hot. Raisins stud many dishes, adding bursts of juicy sweetness to lamb makhani and vegetable biryani. Brimming with chicken tikka, boti kebabs, sautéed peppers, and fresh-baked naan, the Jewel of India specials can feed an entire family in the dining room or fuel an off-site party thanks to the restaurant's catering service.
Chefs at Palace of Dosas work under the ahimsa theme of non-violence to the environment, other beings, and themselves when they fill their menu with vegetarian and vegan Southern Indian cuisine. They spread crepe batter over griddles to craft bases for their 20 different varieties of dosas. The long, thin paper dosas and the butter sada dosas are as rich as a millionaire or someone who got in on the ground floor of the industry that writes about millionaires. They also prepare utthappam, Indian-style pizza with rice and lentil-flour bases and onion and pea toppings. Yogurt-based mango lassis and madras coffee add to the comfort imparted by cushioned booths and a plant-rich dining room.
The heart of any Indian kitchen?the clay oven?is the main cooking source at Delhi Chaat. The oven (also known as a tandoor) reaches temperatures of 800-degrees, allowing it to quickly and perfectly cook morsels of chicken, lamb, and shrimp that have been marinated in yogurt, ginger, garlic, and exotic spices. The result: sizzling entrees packed full of flavor. The oven also produces freshly-baked naan, roti, and other breads (more than 15 varieties, in fact), perfect for scooping up mouthfuls of curry or fanning the face of a spicy food-loving dining companion. When they aren't manning the oven, chefs stay busy simmering lentils and vegetables in creamy tomato sauce and cashew paste, or by concocting the restaurant's sweet desserts, including pastry balls drizzled in syrup and rice pudding peppered with raisins.
The chefs at Tandoori's Royal Indian Cuisine pride themselves on crafting a menu of dishes enjoyed during the golden age of the Grand Moghuls in the 16th century, a time when fine Indian cuisine stepped onto the world?s culinary stage. With myriad authentic recipes at their fingertips, cooks craft porbo pola chicken with a medley of 21 sun-dried spices and coconut milk, as well as delicacies such as lobster tandoori and lamb entrees. At the full bar, mixologists match the heat of the tandoor by crafting spicy cocktails such as the Mumbai Manhattan and cool off palates with more than 30 beers hailing from all over the world. The friendly staff welcomes guests to enjoy the feast in the dining room where live music ignites the air on weekends, or out on the patio where the breeze reminds skydivers how difficult it is to eat curry while freefalling. For large events, the restaurant features a 50-seat conference room and hosts banquets for up to 275 guests.
Walking past Tamarind's modern counter-service eatery within Brookfield Place, home of the Hockey Hall of Fame and near the Air Canada Centre and Sony Centre of Performing Arts, you're likely to get a whiff of coriander, cumin, turmeric, and ginger?the telltale aromas of an authentic Indian restaurant. But, thanks to the chefs' active imaginations, you're likely to notice other scents as well. Jamaican jerk spices, for instance, which put the kick in a recent mango jerk chicken special. Or the spicy aroma of piri piri sauce, the chili-based dressing popular in Mozambique that played a role in a piri piri fish dish. These exotic variations on familiar flavors rotate each month, giving newcomers a reason to stop by and regulars a reason to return. To accompany both the traditional dishes?scratch-made curries, biryani, and convenient wraps and kebabs?and the innovative specials, freshly baked naan bread bearing tantalizing bubbles and zero tan lines emerges from the blazing tandoor throughout the day.

The Best Online Shopping Experiences
I really, really like getting clothes in the mail. Sometimes I slash open boxes in the elevator before I even get into my apartment, using civilized things like my canine teeth, Uniball pens or other mildly sharp, stray things in my handbag (umbrella spokes, earring posts).
But I'm a firm believer that ordering those clothes and accessories should be a relatively fun thing, too—or at least stress-free. Market research firm ForeSee understands this. Each year, they analyze customers' satisfaction with the largest 100 e-tailers by mining feedback about each site's merchandise, presentation and customer service.
Click through below to see how our favorite fashion brands scored according to 21,000 responses. (Because the pool only includes the 100 largest online retailers, some of our favorite sites to shop aren't on there.

What difficulties does Tiresias predict for the journey to come for Odysseus? Why would Odysseus continue, despite the grim prophecies?
Based on Tiresias's prediction, which heroic qualities will odysseus need to rely upon as he continues his journy? Explain.
1 Answer | Add Yours
Tiresias's ghost tells Odysseus that he is likely to be shipwrecked and to have a hard time getting home. Once he gets home, he's going to have to kill all his wife's suitors. Once he does that, he's still going to have to go on a journey, carrying on oar, until he finds a land where people have never heard of the sea or of ships.
Odysseus continues because he is completely loyal to his wife and his son. In addition, he wants the glory of having gone to the war and come back. He wants the glory of having withstood hardships to come home and the glory of having killed all the suitors. Even though he will need great courage and willpower and even though he will need to be extremely cunning (all of these are heroic traits), he still decides to continue on because of his desire to see his family and to gain glory and honor.

About This Project
I've officially stopped stalking and started building! First project a modified spa bench. Still have to stain it, but it already makes the big pile of shoes by the door look neater! I'm a hands-on person and not afraid of power tools (got a band saw for my birthday!) but it's still a challenge building a piece of furniture. I've already learned lots of do's and don't do's for next time!
Thanx a bunch for your site, Ana! It definitely gets the mind plotting great projects to come!

This is awesome! Never thought about modifying the spa bench, but this is perfect for that always-menacing pile of shoes. Hey... I might have to build one for my closet! Thanks for sharing!

This is really cool. I think I may try something similar. Was the height of the shelf the only modification you made?

Bank of Ireland today announced the extension of its Leinster Rugby sponsorship until end of June 2019 in a deal believed to be worth around E6m.
The new five year deal includes exclusive branding of all playing and training kits for the Leinster Rugby professional team and will see Bank of Ireland expand the sponsorship to make a significant additional six figure investment, over five years, to develop the amateur game.
The new investment in amateur rugby in the province - understood to be worth around E1m - will help to develop the game across all levels from the under eight minis to the senior adult competitions. The sponsorship will enhance the support for development officers, coaching materials, equipment and the Coach Development Programme across Leinster. The sponsorship will also provide support for youth rugby camps, recognise the club, school, player and coach of the year. Bank of Ireland will also own the naming rights to, youth and adult club competitions and the Bank of Ireland brand will appear on the kits of the Leinster Youth, Leinster School, Leinster U19's and U20's.
Commenting on the sponsorship extension Mark Cunningham, Director of Business Banking at Bank of Ireland said: "We are delighted to extend our sponsorship of Leinster Rugby for another five years. We have been supporting Leinster Rugby since 2007. We are particularly delighted to deepen our involvement with Leinster Rugby by providing additional funding for the development of the amateur rugby game in the province. Leinster Rugby has a long and proud tradition and at Bank of Ireland we want to help the province to develop players at all levels thus deepening and widening the talent pool which will underpin the sustainability of the game at both amateur and professional levels into the future."
Commenting on the announcement Mick Dawson, Leinster Rugby said "The key thing for any sports team or organisation is to have stability and the extension of our relationship with Bank of Ireland allows us to build for the future in the knowledge that we have the considerable support of a willing and able sponsor."

1st week or 2nd week ?
Jan 21st, 2003, 02:12 AM
I definitely prefer the 1st week: More matches, my favourites still playing ;), unknown/new players on TV etc. :)
Jan 21st, 2003, 03:27 AM
1st week for me too :)
go around all the outside courts :)
then again the 2nd week is the same as the junior players to look on the outside courts too :)
Jan 21st, 2003, 03:55 AM
1st week is a little more filled with surprises. 2nd week is kind of a dead give- away meaning u kinda know who's gonna win the match.but i guess it all depends

Sorry, but I find the first week very boring. Players are still rusty and it's bad tennis.
Second week, players are more settled in and they are higher quality matches.
So, I voted for Second week.;)

Fake Cox workers try scam in Garden City
The Garden City Police Department is using social media to spread the word about two men trying to scam its residents.
A Facebook post and Tweet both say that two Hispanic males have gone to a few residences in Garden City wearing Cox Communications clothing and asking for cash to upgrade their cable television services. The incidents happened between Sept. 6 and today.
"These individuals are not employed by Cox Communications," the police department states. "... You should always remain vigilant when dealing with unsolicited offers. Make sure those you are talking to are actually who they say they are and their business is legitimate."
The only other description police have is that the suspects are driving an older white "beat up" car.

By the time I had my turn in the TTS, winter tires were fitted and the temperatures hovered around 50 degrees. Such is life in Michigan.
I found the TTS coupe to be more useful than the roadster we sampled a few weeks earlier due to the extra space it affords in the trunk and the folding rear seats. I was able to put a pair of rifles in individual soft cases in the hatch, which probably wouldn't be possible in the roadster. There was plenty of room left for all the other supplies needed for a day at the range. I doubt many TTS owners are overly concerned with toting rifles to the range, but now they know it's possible.
Unlike Evan McCausland, I prefer the TTS in coupe form. In addition to the extra storage, the visibility is a little better when compared to a roadster with the top up - though the steep angle of the rear hatch can still cause problems when you want to back out of a parking spot and there are SUVs or trucks parked next to you. And the coupe will save you $2000. I don't know that a $2000 difference in price makes the coupe any more of a value proposition, but it certainly doesn't hurt.
This is the most potent TT on the (U.S.) market, and the car looks and feels very good. I'm still a little undecided on the TTS and where it stands in the market, but I'm not going to hesitate to spend more time behind the wheel of one.

7-Night Western Caribbean Cruise July 25 - August 1, 2009
Hi Everyone,
Since I didn't find a thread about this cruise: I started this one. Anyone else on this Cruise? Still 513 days to go.... |
July 25, 2009...on the Magic.....Western
We are booked on this cruise, my DS, DM and I, along with my niece and her DD.....we're waiting for the rest of the family members to pick up the phone & get booked.
This will be cruise #2 for me and DS.....we went in September of 2004....during Hurricane Jeanne.... :umbrella: We went on the 7-night Western as well but missed most of the ports. Hopefully, this one will go off without a hitch. I'm looking forward to reading more about our cruise. |
Hi Lxnm2 !!!
I started this thread some weeks ago, so we are very pleased to hear you!!! We, that's me, my DW and DD of 13 now. And also for us it wil be cruise # 2. We did the Mediterranean Cruise last year, but that one was a little bit in our "backyard". We live in Belgium, Europe, and that's about a 2 hours flight to Barcelona where the cruise started... and it was a great, unforgetable Cruise! I'm sure that we will have a wonderful time next year, without hurricanes !!! :thumbsup2 |
Just booked this cruise for our honeymoon!! I'm so excited!! Neither of us have ever done a cruise before but are Disney vets (well, I am and Dfi has quickly become a HUGE WDW fan, thank god, or else I don't think the wedding would be happening...J/K!!).
I have been trying to do as much research on this cruise as possible but I feel like there is still so much that I need to know. I have so many questions. But I just ordered the lasted planning video and pre-ordered the latest passporter, so hopefully by the time the cruise comes around, I'll be an old pro! Here's to the next 16 months of planning! :thumbsup2 P.S. DLRPfan.be ~ I see you go to DLP often. This was originally our idea for our honeymoon but we decided on the cruise instead! |
Hi Nikki, and Dfi !
Welcome to the thread! Less then 500 days 'till we're on the Magic! Nice to hear that you are WDW addicts: for us it's DLRParis: We live about 2 1/2 hours from there. And congratulations with your choice of doing the cruise instead of DLRParis: You can't compare the two things, a Disneycruise is so much more! Let's say that the parks in Paris are the "smaller" versions of WDW. And when you're in Europe, you can go there for a couple of days. But now we're countin' off for a great cruise: and that's already half the fun!:woohoo: |
Hi Everyone!:)
DH and I are this cruise. We are doing a B2B 7/18 & 7/25/08. |
Enjoy the 2B2 cruise!!! :thumbsup2 |
Hello fellow cruisers !
We reserved our next cruise for the 7/25/09 Western ! Reserved just in time before the fuel surcharge went into effect. :) My family consists of me, DH, DD that will be 21 and DS that will be 10 at cruise time. Going with another family of 5. We all cruised back in 2006-Eastern/Magic Spring Break, so it's been a while. Looking forward to doing the Western cruise this time. DD tells me 423 days from today til the big day ! We ALL can't wait! Looking forward to meeting fellow cruisers on here before the trip ! :wizard: |
Hello IndyRosa20! Welcome to the thread, and yes: we're also countin' the days...421 right now ;-)
July 25 2009 Western
I can't believe I am not the first one here. I guess I should have known better. DLRP, I think you were on our cruise last summer to the Med. Unless we happened to meet another couple from Belgium. I was having a serious case of the vacation blues, remembering the wonderful time we had last year, so yesterday we booked for 2009. We used our 2008 and some of our 2009 DVC points to pay for it. I will be traveling with DS 9 and DH.... Let the countdown continue. Susan C New Jersey :goodvibes |
Hey guys! Just wanted to remind everyone that in exactly a year from now, we'll be cruising somewhere around the Caribbean! I'm so excited for my first cruise!!
first timers
HI fokes,
DH gave me the cruise on the 25th for my birthday and we can't wait. We have never done a cruise before and a bit nervours. Its nice to know some one before we go thank you so much for this chat site. P.S were from Australia. |
Greetings to our Australian Sailors,,,
This will be our Third Disney cruise. We just love it! We went to Disney World this past spring but decided that we had to take another cruise, we much prefer it. Let me know if you have questions.. Susan -- |
Less than a year...less than a year....
Hello fellow cruisers!!!
We've been booked for months, but I just now got around to popping in. My DH, myself, the 12 year old daughter and another wonderful couple will be on the boat with you!! If anyone has a girl of similar age who might want a sailing buddy, let me know. This is our 2nd cruise. The first one was the 3 night voyage on the Wonder, but that was like eating one M&M out of the bag. It was too short, and I spent wayyyyy too much time running around like a constipated weiner dog, trying to do everything on the boat. I think the 7 night cruise will be much more relaxing. |
Hi Lisa (ljseay),
Welcome to the thread, and also for us it's our 2nd cruise. Our daughter will be just 14 when we get on board... And she's learning English very fast for the moment so she can speak it with Your daughter to... (we live in Belgium, Europe) Lookin' forward to meet you all! Hi Bluefire! Also welcome to the thread, and nice to hear that people from the other side off the world (for us) are also sailing with us! And just be sure of it: you will have the times off your life aboard! |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 04:22 PM. |

@Joruus_Cbaoth Is Marth even in this game? What about Roy, too?
Outdated jokes aside, I'm hyped. Would've loved to see it on Wii U but I'm not complaining. 3DS is just as good.
I MIGHT get it, if it comes out in time for my Birthday, like I was hoping MM3D itself was. While I want the Artbook more, I'd still take a figurine.
I voted Platinum (Gen IV forever) but B2W2 and ORAS are tied for close second. To be fair, I like them all, but Platinum was just amazing. Even if Diamond and Pearl were cool, Platinum made Diamond and Pearl obsolete, in my opinion. I dunno why I love Platinum so much, but I think it's because of nostalgia, even though my first game was Sapphire. I just have the most fond memories with Platinum really.
Wii U. OH MY ****ING GOD. THIS SMASH GAME...it's amazing. If you don't already have a Wii U, I'd get it just for this game. Seriously. (There are other games that make the U worthwhile but this is currently the best, no joke)
Hackers will work around this. They always do. But hey, I'm not complaining about this at all. I'm okay with Homebrew (Had it on my Wii before I'll admit) but it's nice to know Nintendo knows their stuff.
Metacritic scores (A while back, dunno about now) listed Sanic 06 higher than this game score-wise...wow. If Sanic 06 gets a higher score than a game, it must be terrible. Like, seriously.
I'll be getting OR and catching Latios, so it won't matter to me. But it'd be cool if I streetpassed someone with the Eon Ticket. Still, seeing where I live, it's not happening. :/
DLC is the only thing that sounds good enough imo, I could care less about the rest. So I went with that.
I was never expecting this to work with Wii U games, but the GC Controller can't even be used for freaking Wii games?
Well, there goes my only reason to buy the Smash GC Controller bundle.
Love it. Love it so much. To think that back in 2004 I barely knew who Ness was besides his presence in Smash...fast-forward ten years later and I am a huge fan of EarthBound. Now if only if we can get the entire Mother Trilogy remade on 3DS, that would be a dream come true.
Ubi, I can go sell that copy of Rayman Legends I bought yesterday right now. In fact, I can never buy a game from you again because I refuse to support you any more.
Now that I've got my rant out of the way, I expected this to happen, but I'm disappointed that it did happen. Because knowing my luck, this ALWAYS happens when I don't have money. And even if the release date did break here then my store most likely wouldn't have it... sigh
Only a week left. HYPE.
I almost wish it'd come out now, but the only reason keeping me from wanting that to happen is money issues... D:
Before I thought "Region Locking sucks." and this didn't change my views one bit. So yeah, I'm calling BS.
@Jazzer94 >ripping of the original trilogy
So would Super Smash Flash 2 be a rip-off of Smash? Or how about Pokemon Zeta and Omicron? Would that be ripping off Pokemon?
Are people actually WHINING about this? Like, seriously, it's a ****ING FAN PROJECT. STUFF LIKE THIS HAPPENS ALL. THE. DAMN. TIME. Get over it.
Now that my rant is done, this looks pretty good. This is actually the most I've ever been hyped for a fan project. Smash hype though, keeps making me forget that this project is the most amazing fan project ever.
Sakurai, you're a bad***. Without you, Kirby and Smash would've likely never existed. Kid Icarus would've probably never saw a revival either. I gotta say, you're second to only Shigesato Itoi (Him for creating the most epic game series ever that is Mother/Earthbound ) on my list of favorite Nintendo developers.
Sad to see the ICs go, hopefully they'll live on in the Wii U version and become 3DS Version DLC.
I feel like DHD and ROB are much better than ICs though, so while I'm kinda sad they're gone, I'm kinda happy that this is still the best roster yet. cough GRENINJA cough
Any reports of 2DS Circle Pads breaking off because of Smash?
@themariobloggie Nope. I do as well. Love it.
Do you have to be platinum, or will it be available on the eShop for everyone? Because if it's the former, that's bull****. :/
Fabulousdorf definitely. However, I'll also be using Ghirahim the fabulous lord and Zant the fabulous king.
I knew what an NES was when I was 6. A ****ING 6 YEAR OLD (at the time) KNEW ABOUT THIS BEFORE EVEN THESE TEENS DID.
I'm sorry, but if that is really the case, then something's wrong here.
Meh, just another indie releas-
Notices all teh Earthbound references
I lost interest after TPPE, but I may start watching this again. Might even start playing Pokemon Y again.
Faith in HW: Restored. It's about time too.
Also Lana looks like the one I'll be using most, though Darunia looks like a good character. I'll be using him too.
@AlexSora89 Ikr? It's not fair to those of us who wasn't able to go to Smashfest or E3, and it's also not fair to us who can't make it to SDCC.
This sucks, sharing my Comics was one of the reasons I planned on buying this. :/ Ah well, at least there is other ways to share comics.
